This question is asking for a opinion with some facts to back it up, so I will try my best here.

<h3>Answer: Boredom and Frustration</h3>

There are many possible reasons that people bite their nails, like whether a finger nail clipper is available or they have developed a habit.

But there may be more to it than we think, researchers have found that bored and frustrated people bite their nails the most. The younger you are, the more likely you are to bite your nails.

Nearly half of adolescents bite their nails, according to one study, and upwards of 60 percent chewed them in childhood.

<h3>Some other reasons could be: </h3>

Nail Biters Are More Likely to Be Perfectionists

Psychiatric Disorders

Freud Thought It Was About Sex (Of Course)

These just some possible answers, but the main one is Boredom and Frustration.

Explain why adolescence is a time of physical, mental, emotional, and social changes expalin in paragraph form.
Solnce55 [7]
The change in adolescence all begins as a child in their unique combination of genes<span>, brain development, environment, experiences with family and friends, and community and culture. Social and emotional changes show that they are growing independently and learning how to be an adult. Physical change in different genders are really different because both are going into puberty and so they begin to see alot of differences in their bodies. Adolescence mental starts on what they begin to see and believe, and as everything is developing in their mind many of those things stay, what they have in mind depends on them. Adolescence are still maturing to become adults.

(hope i kinda made sense)</span>
